Answer:

answer: C

Step-by-step explanation:

The 1st Amendment begins with the words, ‘Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof:.’ The ‘seperation of powers’ refers to any preferential treatment by the government to people of any particular faith, a clause which was clearly violated by linking voting rights to religious requirements.
